Krokus - Eat the Rich (Live)

ROCK STARS PERFORM LIVE IN CONCERT.

[@forumcelebritypodcast]

one of the most underrated bands of all time. 2024 baby! out of the palace and into the ditch!

[@ChucksterOLove]

Man Krokus were good live, Marc Storace sounds like a rock god! I have been going back and reappreciating Krokus' music. What a badass rock n roll band... 🤘👏🤘👏🤘👏🤘

[@shellydunn4566]

BECAUSE HE IS!!!

[@jeanfrancois125]

European rock 🎸 🤘

[@loco4636]

I saw them live in Knoxville, Tennessee, and they killed it, baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mariegardner8347]

When was that

[@grumpy4882]

One of the first metal albums I purchased in my teens....still have it.

[@nd_irish_fan744]

I was 16 yrs of age in 1983, and I was just getting barely decent on the guitar. Def Leppard's Pyromania album had taken off, and Krokus' Headhunter was one of my favorites at the time. We didn't realize there were 3 bands playing until the night of the concert--which was very rare at the time in our venue--and I had never heard of this guy who was the opening act. Well, "this guy" was the legendary Gary Moore. OMFG! All I could do was just stare at the stage with my jaw dropped asking my best friend, "where in the hell did this guy come from?" Krokus followed and Def Leppard ended the show. Def Leppard was an incredible show. They sounded great, the light show was phenomenal, and we definitely got what we payed for. Krokus didn't have all the lights and pyrotechnics of Def Leppard, and there's only a few players in the world who can compare to Gary Moore. However, those boys just flat out friggin rocked the entire time on stage. As a matter of fact, Marc Storage busted up a guitar at the end of their final song. I saw most all of the rock bands of the 80s and very early 90s. As far as just turn the power on and rock the friggin house, AC-DC was the best I ever saw, and Krokus was nibbling at their heals. With all 3 bands, by far the best concert I ever saw.

[@kevinismawayoflife4660]

I was watching this & thinking to myself that I know I saw Krokus on this tour, but I couldn’t remember who they opened for. I was thinking it was Aerosmith… but no! It was Def Leppard on Pyromania. Now I’m wondering if I saw Gary Moore!

[@MrMegaFredZeppelin]

One of the best from Krokus. This is awesome live. ROCK ON!!!!!

[@stormchaser419]

Night Ranger and Krokus were criminally underrated. Both bands were absolutely incredible live and gave their all every performance. Love the hard driving groove of this song.

[@MikeSidious]

Very impressive live version! Nailed it!

[@raythackston1960]

Steve Pace on the drums killing it! Great player and a great friend!

[@morphinmary4759]

raythackston1960 you're lucky, that drummer rocks!

[@anthonyraines4792]

I had the privilege of seeing Krokus opening for Def Leppard in '83(?)..That night Krokus deserved top bill, a truely kick ass band!

[@raythackston1960]

@@morphinmary4759 I met him playing for Derek St. Holmes in around 1983. He was leaving to go play a Europe tour with another band. I took his place with Dereks band. We remeained friends for all these years. he still plays local here in the Atlanta area. Such a great guy...a killer player.

[@williamtodd819]

I wondered if that was Steve.

This song's never rang more true.

Listening to this kickass since the 70’s. They only got better.

[@maxrico6660]

Krokus on the Headhunter tour was them at their peak! They were ripping hard!

[@jamesrogers9949]

This was so good..even to this day..2016 and beyond. Just all good.

[@rockdog2843]

Saw them in 84.Such a kick ass concert.They were with Keel.I wish those kind of bands would get huge again like they used to be.Music was actually FUN in those days. And GOOD!!

[@andytheX94]

His voice is even more powerful than the studio version, absolutely killer voice

[@chriscampbell9191]

Mr. Storace definitely delivered 100% live both times I saw Krokus in '81. And I just saw a vid of the band playing in Switzerland this last May (2023) (Zürich) and he still delivers today. Just amazing vocals.

[@DarrellS54]

Rock and Roll Tonite was a great show back in the day! I`m glad to see clips again after all these years!

[@KerryWaldrip]

This could be the new national anthem. Thank God for the 2nd. Glory, honor, peace.

[@mark_beastpriest5539]

This was the very first song I ever heard from Krokus. My immediate thought was, "Holy sh*t! The singer sounds like Bon Scott!"

[@saldifrancesca2500]

Great Rock band.....their songs always had great hooks....great simple sound. 👌

[@AxterAstelium]

Una de las mejores bandas de hard and blues rock de los 80's.

[@vinnyp8929]

One of the best singers/bands ever

[@tomitstube]

great song, great performance. still relevant today. even more.

[@charliemac64]

I saw these guys twice, once in '81, and once in '83. In '81, they opened for a 3-band show, Krokus, Trapeze, and Nazareth. For the life of me, I couldn't remember who opened in '83, though. So I hit up some research tools and found out that in '83, the concert I saw was Krokus as headliner, 1st backup was Point Blank, and the opener that night was some guy I had never heard of and who obviously left zero impression on me whatsoever. When I learned who it was, I said, "No way!" But looking back, yeah, he was trying to be a hard rock singer early in his career. That didn't work out too well, so he changed it up and became the guy we all know and hate...MICHAEL BOLTON. Yes, Michael Bolton opened for Krokus. August 1983 in El Paso, TX. I can't make this stuff up, folks...

[@paulajane9828]

100 % awesome rockers forever legends love everything about this song forever 💯♥️🎸🤘

[@thedude5906]

Saw these guys "live", back in '83 on their "Screamin in the Night" tour. Oddly enough, they started out on this tour with Def Leppard as their "headlining" act, but due to the meteoric rise of the Leps' album, "Pyromania", the Leps took over as the "headlining" act on the tour, a mere week or so before we seen them. Indeed, seeing them take the stage "before" the Leps that night, and aware as to how this band had just been screwed, you could faintly sense how Marc Storace and the guys were not happy campers with their new tour status, at all, but they plodded on through like pros. Nonetheless, Fernando was his usual amazing self on the axe that night. THis is a good band, that should of gotten a lot more attention in the states during that era. BTW, does anyone else hear the vocal resemblance between "Bon Scott" (of AC/DC ~ who died in Feb, 1980) and Marc's voice here? Geez - it's a wonder that Angus Young and the guys didn't call Marc him up in 1980, and offer him the AC/DC gig. But I guess Brian Johnson worked out well for them, in the end. Just a thought.

[@RichardSmithloves]

I saw that tour! What a great show!

[@FreeMTrider]

I had to look it up, but I saw them back in 1984 in Sacramento. Smaller venue that held about 4000, Memorial Auditorium. I'm not sure if it was the time they went back to headlining, but Wasp and Helix opened for them. The Blitz tour.

[@fbcoachg]

City Island, Harrisburg PA

[@patricialloyd3924]

Yes, I saw that tour too. August of 1983!! Yes they opened for Def LEPPARD. I did not know it started out the other way around!!

[@dorothycockerham6494]

For Def Leppard and Krokus.I love both of those bands.No matter what happens to them.I hope I get to see Krokus live for my first time ever and Def Leppard, I seen them 1 time down here in Orlando,Florida a year ago.And they totally rocked my world.And I hope Krokus does the same thing for me too.And for the lead singer from Krokus didn't get the call from the men from AC/DC.It's ok,Cause he's doing fine and rocking with Krokus.

[@chipchippie]

Headhunter still in my top 20 since 83 or so. It's really all their fault that I never grew up or got old. 🎉❤ I still have my hair wink 😉

Marc Storace was the closest thing rock n roll had as a clone of Bon Scott from AC / DC. Both were incredible frontmen.

haa' before I saw your comment here, I was thinking the same thing! storace has a great rock voice!

[@MRFUCR]

He was offered the job 30 years ago and turned it down

[@hungthatmtf.nguyen8753]

Kevin Willis Don’t ask me I don’t know 😛

[@22Judoka]

I agree. He was always compared to Brian Johnson back in th day. 80's

[@melissadavis225]

For sure he rocks seen him my first concert blew me away

[@gr8lampini]

Gary Moore Krokus and Fed Leppard must have been about 1982 awesome

[@gr8lampini]

Sorry Def fuckin fone

[@TogonzoMedia]

The biggest reason why Marc Storace turned down the AC/DC gig was because both he and Krokus were dogged by comparisons with Bon Scott and AC/DC to the point of critical derision. The music press smeared and maligned Marc and Krokus as AC/DC wannabes and they couldn't shake it. Despite the fact that Marc (and myself, included) believe such comparisons are false and unfair since Bon Scott -- like Freddie Mercury, Elvis, etc. -- belong as leagues of their own. I myself never compared Marc and Krokus to AC/DC because, to my ears, Krokus always sounded like a cleaner, less raspy, but more heavy version of Nazareth, and it's ironic though not accidental that both Marc Storace and Dan McCafferty were offered the AC/DC gig and both of them turned it down. It's a testament to their unique qualities they bring as individuals. Yet still, how amazing and humbling it must be when fans can swear up and down that the likes of Marc Storace, Dan McCafferty, Bon Scott, Brian Johnson, and even Jesse James Dupree could easily fit into (and do justice to) the lead vocalist role in their respective bands?!?

[@theunfortunatespectacle7381]

Marc is the only person I'd rather replaced Bon Scott than Brian Johnson.

[@Kreln1221]

I realize that there was some dirty dealings between Krokus and other bands such as Twisted Sister, the likes of which would make Sharon Osborne blush, but you gotta' give the devils their due... Krokus fukin' slammed hard, period. On tunes like this, they were like the arrogant illegitimate bastard offspring between metal and punk. While their business dealings might have been shady as hell, they could and did nail the groove to the stage floor night after night, like a gang of evil Energizer Bunnies with jack hammers.

[@Phantasm70]

Having just the thought of Krokus opening up for def leperd back in 1983 is "disgusting", def has NEVER seen the day or NEVER will see the day that they have anything on Krokus. It just really gets me how def's only real heavy metal rockin' albums were their first 2 albums " &maybe" their 3rd lp & after that they turned into nothing more than "MAINSTREAM" pop rock..........NOT METAL

[@skeetersaurus6249]

Always liked Krokus...I remember buying the cassette for Screaming in the Night in '83...and later on, when Dee Snider got his shorts in a wad over Krokus, it really changed the way I thought about Snider...I mean, here's Mr 'Defend the hard rock' going after Krokus over some damn COSTUMES and payment to Snider's wife! Good grief...if you don't want 'bad feelings' don't be doing 'professional work' for other bands! Screaming in the NIght is still one of the Top-10 albums of all-time in the world of 'old metal / hard-rock'...

[@jameshargroder7090]

The album's title was HEADHUNTER.

[@christopherhall1021]

Those guys did rip off Snider’s wife and threaten his family. Dee has a right to be pissed STILL. The song is great but if their character is questionable, what can you say about it?
